FLASHPOINT for Mar 18, 2007

Sunday, March 18, 2007 | 7:26 a.m.

You may have heard by now that Democratic presidential candidates will be pandering at, er, attending a Culinary Union contract rally on the eve of a forum on health care. The rally at Culinary headquarters likely will attract hundreds, if not thousands of hotel workers . But these candidates might have to watch what they say as they try to suck up. Yes, there will be many potential voters - those who are registered - in that crowd. But contract negotiations can be dicey, and have these White House hopefuls forgotten the barrels of campaign cash available on the Strip ? It's the choice that candidates have to consider, especially with a well-organized constituency and a well-off industry: Votes or money?
